Ben Henderson-Thiago Alves Nov 28th

Seoul, South Korea

Main Event

I thought Bendo was moving up to 170 and Alves was moving down to 155. Strange...

Fight is at 170. Alves probably realized he'd never make 155

Looks like Masvidal's getting some grapple rape to go with his korean bbq that night.

Mas-DHK should be a good fight. But is Mas even really big enough to compete against today's WWs?

Good looking card so far. I have Benson, Cro Cop and Stun Gun.

Did you watch his last fight? He looked two weight classes smaller than Cezar and still knocked him out

The interesting thing there is that it was his first KO in six years. . .

Jeez... They must be looking for a highlight reel head kick KO.

Kind of surprised to see Bendo be such a big favorite considering he's going up a weight class here. He looked pretty small against Thatch.

Henderson is the same height as Alves. Thatch is 6'2"

There's more to size than height.

I'm not. Bendo looked very good against Thatch, super elusive. I just don't think Thiago has enough left anymore to put the brakes on Bendo's rise in the division. Alves may be a large welterweight, but that doesn't mean Bendo can't still do his thing. I think we see the return of the Bendo who was on a mission again in this fight, a-la Guida, Miller, and Bocek.

Well, the reason Thatch looked so much bigger was because he was a half-foot taller, so that's what I thought you meant

Bendo is faster, hald more left, and better cardio. Just don't see how Alves wins unless its an early TKO
